Co-Presidents
Founders of MFOL Sequoia Union
Nicholas Kwok, Christopher Kwok, and Nicholas Lawrence are formerly the co-presidents of March for Our Lives Sequoia, in which they expanded to March for Our Lives Sequoia Union. They all joined March for Our Lives as freshmen when the chapter was newly established. In the beginning, Nicholas Lawrence, who is interested in social and political activism, invited his friends to the first March for Our Lives meeting. From there, they learned about the severity of the gun epidemic within America, and each of them was immediately engrossed in the movement. Now they manage everything within the organization, from organizing events and the chapter's curriculum to attending weekly chapter lead calls; Nicholas, Christopher, and Nicholas are dedicated and proud of the many accomplishments March for Our Lives Sequoia Union has achieved. Aside from social activism, the three manage Science Olympiad, enjoy Model United Nations, and participate in Speech and Debate, further exploring their civic aspirations.

Madelyn Doohan
VP OF OUTREACH
Hi! My name is Madelyn, I am the VP of Outreach! Currently a junior at Sequoia, I joined the club when I was a freshman. I went to a protest after the Parkland shooting. At the protest, so many people talked and all had different stories that connected to gun violence in schools and shared their ideas. It made me feel empowered and inspired. When I came to Sequoia and discovered this club, I was excited that I would be able to have a chance to be a part of something that could make so much good change.
Megan Wilson
VP OF ADMIN
Hi! My name is Megan. I am currently a junior at Sequoia and the VP of Admin. I love dancing and baking, as well as fostering dogs. I have three of my own. I joined March for Our Lives freshman year after hearing about it in class. I had previously heard about the organization on the news and thought it was really interesting. I thought the club was an amazing way to spread ideas that March for Our Lives stands for more locally. It ended up being exactly that! I am so glad that I participated!
Alex Cottrell
VP OF TREASURY
Hi! I am Alex. I am the VP of Treasury and manage this chapter's funds. My journey in March for Our Lives started junior year of high school. Outside of the movement, I spend my time in debate and tennis.
Mayleen Lao
SECRETARY
Hi! I am Mayleen, the president of the Woodside sub-chapter and secretary of March for Our Lives Sequoia Union. I joined the organization because I saw school shootings becoming more frequent, which made gun control suddenly very personal to me. As shootings got more serious to the point where my sister had it occur at her college and kids were bringing them to school, the issue didn't seem so small anymore. So, I joined this club to put in my two cents on what I want our future to be and what I want our future generations to have.
